Oh, and the gluten free Bisquick is fabulous. Baarilla and Ronzoni now make gluten free pasta and Maggiano's is incredible in accomodating a gluten free need. So do Outback and Carabba's.

Where were these people fifteen years ago!!! {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

We now have a fabulous gluten free bakery near us. Italian bread is great, and so are the scones, cookies, cake. Sigh.

No, it's not a mix, just a box of gluten free flour.

I had no idea that Bisquick had a gluten free version. I'll have to check that out!

Would love to have a gluten free bakery to go to.

I see I have a lot to learn.

I have issues with modern wheat products and am GF except for the exclusive use of einkorn flour, which I buy through jovial. Check out their web. I enjoy their products and service.

King Arthur makes a gluten free bread mix, complete with yeast. It seemed to be more like a traditional bread when I made it. Family liked it. Bread is hard to make from scratch. You need several flours, xantham gum, and some other things. I haven't had any luck with making it from scratch.

Hi Anniecamp, I just happen to read this about "GLUTEN-FREE". Also, I had no idea that there was a gluten free flour, but am absoluely against gluten 'anything'.
Tomorrow my husband & I are driving approx. 40 miles to a gluten free bakery for assorted breads, muffins. I found out from a good friend who is gluten intolerant, so this was word of mouth. I am going to ask if these bakery goods can be mailed or where do they buy their stock from? I am not in any sense of the imagination a kitchen person-defitely not a oven/bakery person but would try my luck if I can go gluten (bakery) free if I find quality ingredients; not every product that says Gluten Free is the REAL thing. Call around or do a mapquest in your area..you may be as surprised as I was. I, personally do not want "G" in any of my foods. Also, I asking the cook next door, who uses a breadmaker, if it makes any difference with using regular flour versus (if I find out from this bakery:buying flour) what would be the outcome of the bread, if I do it myself...............?

There are many types of gluten free flour out there, but the easiest are the ones that will measure cup for cup just like regular flour and not need the use of xanthan gum. Chef Thomas Keller developed one call Cup 4 Cup that measures just like flour. There are a few others out there, look on amazon.com. I think it's expensive, but worth it if I want to invite my sister and her boyfriend over. He's celiac and can't even be where flour has been on countertops.

...thank you JennPari... as I mentioned earlier, I have no use for gluten in my food(s). I have another poster friend who is a ( I would surmise) cook/chef in {her} kitchen. She told me that many gluten free foods can be bought from Amaz. com / It's always worth IT in cost, to be selective, 'if able'. I'll pass this on to anyone whom I know of this information. Sorry, I have absolutely no idea what xanthan gum / (use) is. This is my 2nd visit in with your kitchen friends. Unfortunately, I do not excel in cooking, just the after effect(s)= what foods do in playing havoc on one's body. Most people, until they are evaluated, do not know they are intolerent to scores of ingredients- alone- or used in prepartion from scratch. I am becoming better. I am able to have our meals perpared by a nutritionist.
I stay completely away from processed foods. The more simple to 'fix' and serve, usually is the worse... loaded with junk. I hear and read of so many patients having health issues and metabolism dysfunction due to foods.

I have been GF for several years. This bread is so good that my entire family LOVES it and wont eat anything else. For a GF white bread I buy Udi's but thats rare. We love this oatmeal bread. Check our the website below. I also included the recipe below. My bread turns out exactly like the photos. You wont be sorry the taste is incredible and it toasts up wonderfully. Also Pamela's Baking Mix sold on Amazon makes the BEST biscuits in the world and the recipe along with others is on the back of the bag.

http://www.yammiesglutenfreedom.com/2012/11/gluten-free-honey-oat-bread.html

3 1/3 cups oat flour (or 4 cups of gluten-free oats plus more for the top)
2 scant tablespoons yeast
1 1/2 cups warm water
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons honey
1/2 cup corn starch (or tapioca flour)
1/2 cup rice flour (white or sweet white rice flour. Brown rice would probably work to but I haven't tried that yet)
2 teaspoons xanthan gum
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
4 eggs

If you're using whole oats, blend them in the food processor until they're pretty fine (as fine as you can get them). Meanwhile combine the yeast and water and let sit for a few minutes. Add the oil, honey, starch, flour, xanthan gum, and oats and beat until combined. Add the salt, cinnamon, and eggs. Beat for a few minutes until fluffy. Pour into a well greased 10 inch loaf pan and allow to rise for about 45 minutes until doubled. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350ÂşF. Sprinkle the top of the risen loaf with some more oats and cut a few slits in the top with a serrated knife. Bake for about 45 minutes. Allow to cool before cutting

I always end up with more batter than this recipe says, so I use a 10 inch pan AND a smaller loaf pan and get 1 large and 1 small loaf of bread. I also have used the brown rice flour with this recipe and it works better than the white in my opinion.

Cup4Cup is my favorite and most used gluten free flour blend as well. Of all the types/brands that I have tried, I have had by far the best success with this one in any of my everyday recipes to swap them into gluten free. As I've mentioned before, my youngest DD has Celiac and therefore is very sensitive to any amount of gluten in her food. Suprisingly, I've used Cup4Cup in recipes that were also consumed by gluten loving people and they have not only liked the results but expressed surprised that gf could take so good.
